Abstract

The demanding lifestyle that nowadays society imposes generates a great amount of stress that affects the well-being of each individual. Facing this, thehumanorganism,as afunctional unity ofbodyand soul, becomes unable to self-regulate in order to fight the inflammatory process generated by the nocive stimuli. Therefore different illnesses occur.

Stroke is a public health problem across the world, with approximately 16 million new cases annually. Stroke has two major risk factors: the modifiable and the non-modifiable ones. While the last ones cannot be influenced, there are many ways of reducing the modifiable ones.

Nowadays statistics reveal that between 60 and 85% of the world’s population, from both developed and non-developed countries, have a sedentary lifestyle. Many of these individuals are obese and have various other illnesses such as high blood pressure, dyslipidemia and hypercholesterolemia. These are important stroke risk factors.

The scope of this paper is to reveal that an individualized physical exercise program, applied in a systematic and specialized way, can reduce some of the modifiable risk factors of stroke thus decreasing its occurrence.

The study was performed in „Le Club” gym in Bucharest, on a group of 10 subjects and had a 3 months duration.

The kinetic programs we designed were aimed to improve the subjects’ exercise capacity and their body composition. They required limited equipment such as a treadmill, bands, mats, balls and light weights.
